Dance Recital

This year we have had a lot of fun watching the girls enjoy their dance class.  This week, they performed in their first dance recital.  It was a really informal dance recital for just the little ones and it was so great to watch! The pictures are not great since we couldn't use the flash but at least it is something to show.  We were able to video tape it and have watched it many times since! Emma was supposed to wear long sleeved pajamas and Maddie had to wear a Christmas dress.  The last two pictures are what I got when they decided to "pose" for the camera.  Funny girls!

Emma - Emma performed first and was so shy!  This was her first big performance at a place like this and she spent most of the dance looking around and trying to find where we were sitting.  As you can see in the picture, she gets a little nervous in front of crowds.  She got braver towards the end and did a few moves but this picture pretty much captures the essence of her performance.  I loved it all the same!

Maddie - Maddie is definitely going to be our performer.  She got up there just fine and did as many of the moves as she could remember.  My two favorite parts were when they tapped their little feet with the jingle bells on them and when they jumped up and shouted "Hey!" during Jingle Bells. Loved watching her and can't wait to see what she can do in the future.
